Lauren, I'm sorry to hear that Kent hasn't worked out for you. I read your news page tonight. It's very sad, having to sell all that equipment some of which obviously holds precious memories for you and particularly your bondage bench which has travelled with you for 14 years. Why do you have to get rid of it, Lauren, if it means so much to you? If it's because you don't have the space for it, couldn't you lend it to someone who could make use of it and reclaim it when you have new premises to work from? It would be worth £250 to know that you hadn't lost it forever.
Best of luck in your new premises and try to keep smiling!
